I had a hard day yesterday

First let me say thanks to all who responded to help me with the collage sheets, I am going to go over what you all have said and report back, a big thank you!

We bought a fixer upper a few years ago and just starting to do major work. I am so excited about this but do not do well in a chaotic atmosphere! We got a new roof put on our house, Yay! But for three days I heard pounding, banging, yelling and my dog barking all day! A piece of plaster fell down from all the banging on the roof just missing my head! I am used to peace and quiet! So I didn't get any work done. But the end result of a new roof in so worth it!

It has been storming here in N Florida and yesterday my studio flooded! Luckily anything that was on the floor was in plastic so nothing that I can see got damaged.

Yahoo was having a tantrum yesterday and I could barely read my email or send any out!

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy!
xxoo Astrid

Laura's Deco

I have been working on Laura's deco called "Inspiration" So here's a couple of pages. Done with Rubber stamps and watercolor, H2o's and die cuts. These represent my many moods as an artist.

Woven background, watercolored the fairy. Used beaded trim and scrabble tiles.
For a Fairy Deco Swap. Used Beach and Twinkling h20's on pixie. Did paper weaving and cut out circle with die cut machine. Added sparkling sequin stars and sparkling sticker border.

This page is for Gail

I have been sooo busy but managed to do a page for a swap I am in. It's a book on Friendship. The background is stamped and handcolored and then collaged border with napkin print, added some large flowers from a card, wings are those copper foil German Scrap which I antiqued and the angel is a pop up. xxoo Astrid
